Oatmeal Apple Banana Low Fat Muffins are a great weekend brunch baking idea that also makes a terrific alternative to the Monday morning quick granola bar breakfast if you have some left over.

I think these are best served warm as a wholesome quick breakfast.

These dense hearty muffins are very satisfying with very little added sugar or oil. The mashed bananas and grated apple keep these muffins particularly moist and a few seconds in the microwave to warm them make them just as good the next day.

    1. Sorry, that was a copy and paste error earlier today when I was reformatting the recipe. Glad you caught it so quickly. It is 1 cup and the error has been corrected in the recipe. B.

  1. Want to try these muffins... My husband is allergic to bananas... Could I substitute a cup of applesauce for the banana? It would just mean there would be more apple flavor right?

  2. Great muffins!

    I used coconut oil instead of veg oil. I also subbed 4 tbsp coconut sugar in place of cane dugar. I also added 3 tbsp ground flax and a few tbsp apple sauce because I used oatmeal istead of oats and it seemed too thick. Next time I will will probably add extra baking powder to give them a bit more lift.

    Thry were a hit qith my 5 year old though. She asked me for banana bread and these fit the bill. She even thanked me for baling these.

  3. I subbed 2 tablespoons of oil with non sweetened applesauce, and I subbed half the sugar with splenda. Muffins were awesome. With my subs calories were 118 per muffin, making 16 muffins. Will definitely make these again.

  4. I just want to say this recipe is awesome. I don't follow blogs but I am always looking for new HEALTHY recipes to incorporate into my diet. Ya know, food that makes you sane. This by far is one of the best healthy muffins I came across. I did make some adjustments to lower the fat content. Instead of 2 whole eggs, I used 1 whole egg and one egg white; used a 1/4 cup of unsweetened natural applesauce; subbed regular sugar with Truvia; used unsweetened vanilla cashew milk; and finally, I used regular oatmeal. They came out perfectly sweetened and moist. The calorie count with my adjustments and macros are

    Thanks for the great recipe!

  5. Perfect! Thank you for this recipe. For breakfast, they go great with some Greek yogurt and a drizzle of honey and as a snack or dessert vanilla ice cream is just the bomb <3

  6. These are so delicious. I am really big into healthy eating and so it can be hard to find recipes for healthier snacks and treats like this. I baked them and they smelled and tasted amazing, and healthy! Definitely will be keeping this one in the books!

  7. Hi,

    I have tried this recipe several times and every time they turn out great. I make couple of batches and freeze them. My kids love them too! Thank you for sharing a very healthy and delicious recipe.
